Filled with questions and unquenchable desires, Anaïs journeys home from college in order to finally find peace. She especially hopes to find refuge in the arms of her childhood friend, Elian, the same young man that used to tease her growing up. Instead, an unforeseeable and disastrous chain of events sets her on a path to sentience she never dreamed possible. She tries to stay one step ahead of the evil that has disrupted her life, and instead only falls deeper into its misery. Elian and Anaïs are forced to survive together, facing dangers that neither one of them knew could exist, except in suffocating nightmares.
